Tips for Getting Around

Public Transit

Details about public transportation in Anaheim are available at www.octa.net.

Anaheim also offers the Anaheim Resort Transit (ART) Service, a visitor shuttle system that provides access to dining, shopping and attractions. The ART provides access to the Disney parks, the Anaheim Convention Center, and several hotels in the ALA hotel block and other locations in the area. Passes are available for $3 for a day, or a five day pass is available for $12. Details are available at: anaheimoc.org.

ALA Shuttles - Sponsored by Gale Cengage Learning

Free shuttle buses, sponsored by Gale Cengage Learning, will operate between all participating hotels and the Anaheim Convention Center during the conference. Service will also be provided for attendees with disabilities. Shuttle bus service schedules (including daily pickup times, locations and destinations) will be published in Cognotes (the daily show newspaper available during the conference) and will be available onsite. Complimentary bus service is provided by Gale Cengage Learning. Don’t forget to stop by their booth and say thanks for the lift!

New California Cell Phone Law

On July 1 there is a new cell phone law in California (and in many other states.) California has the strictest laws:

Cell phones must be used hands-free

Text-messaging prohibited while driving

Bus drivers (school or transit) can't phone and drive

Teen/provisional driving laws that ban cell phone use

Police will be actively looking for drivers with cell phones at their ears -- a good revenue source for the police department.
